Joxpos. July 2.-The legislative performances
of the week are certainly important, yet 90 no'
uub,ic attention The Irish Members OF the House
of Commons have once more chosen to emphasis
tboir omcstion to Coercion by retiring from tnc
field as protest against fresh application Oh 'n'
closure. The result was that the report S'sse
was finished Thursday instead of-as was expec'ea
-next Monday. These tactics are believed 10 hS''
hoe,, adonted at Mr.. Gladstone's instance win
view to impending elections The Liberals hope 20
carry two of these If they are able to convince 'ne
constituencies that they do not practise nor approve
obstruction. The third reading Of the Crimes Dill
,v,u no taken ON Tuesday, when Mr. Gladstone
,ir marshal his composite battalons in line Tor the
last time and move the rejection OF the DILL
sIngularly pcremptory Parnellite VIII has been
issued for that occasion.
Tho I,ish Land bin last night also passed the
onot stage in the House of Lords after undergoing
m,,ch amendment. Lord Salisbury does not profess
10 like his own bill but treats it as measure "hcn
circumstances compel him to PASS. de admits 'nAS
Il is only makeshift but pleads that IL IS ohe
hest measure that could be proposed and adopted as
THINGS stand Every effort has been maze Id inc
House of Lords to get the bill into shape as Loro
Harrington desires, so that in the Commons IL may
have the undivided Unionist support. 1t Is under
stood that Lord Hartington's objections have all
been met
Sir George Trevelyans letter and Mr.. Chamber
,ans repy are the only other political incidents Oh
value during the week. The breach between Sir
,;eorpe TreveNan and his late Unionist colleagues
&c now, complete and the energy of their attack on
him shows how strongly they feel their loss Inc
r,pt,re between Sir George Trevelyan and Mr'
Chamberlain amounts to personal quarrel ou'
more important political question remains or
f,aoroe Treyelyan says Mr.. Gladstones concession
remove his objections to last years Home huie
scheme. Mr. Chamberlain and Others ask Tor par
ticulars. One chief objection that Sir George
ureve,yan urged was that Mr. Gladstone's proposal
vested the administration of law and maintenance
90 authority in an Irish executive. He Is now
asked to state when and where MIR. GLADSTONE h''S
p,ado auy concession on this cardinal point.
The visit of Prince Albert Victor and Prince
tieoye of Wales to Dublin has ended without
msadventure. Very great precautions were taKen W
insure the sfety Of these young Princes They were
received enthusiastically by the Loyalists end were
allowed BIZ the otter classes to show themselves on
the streets without having to endure insult. Inc
Nationalist press advised policy OF indifference,
which people pretty generally adopted.
Mr. Leclxy replies in The Nineteenth Century
briefly but very forcibly to Mr. Gladstones attack
ON the statement in his history respecting the
pronosal to repeal the income tax specific points
made by Mr. Gladstone and his charges OF inaccu'
racy. Mr. Lecky offers what seems to be de-
:isive refutation on the general question. He says
pegnantly that manipulation Of taxation for party
purposes Is one Of the Characteristic dangers OF
modern politics. "An election promise. continues
Mr.. Lecby, ito relieve great class OF waverlns
voters from a specific tax If they would vote for
Minister appears to me TO be typical and con-
spicuous example of this danger He does not
impugn Mr. Gladstone's motives but expresses the
opinion that the decisive and somewhat Indignant
re eection Of his offer by the constituencies was an
encouraging sign of the sound political morality
OF the Nation.
Jubilee festivities supposed to end with the
Queens garden PARTY on "Wednesday at Buckingham
Palace, but they do not end Her reception TO the
Indian Princes and Chiefs the next day at Windsor
Castle one of The most picturesque ceremonials
yet witnessed Whether all these Orientals have
ecovered their sorey tried tempers may be doubted
out outwardly as usual their demeanor was decOrim
iteelf. Even Maharajah Hollxar of Indore, who has
been outspoken in his discomfort, behaved hand
somely. He offered his congratulations to the
Queen in friendly terms and requested, If the
official account may be trusted Her Majesty 3
gracious acceltance Of memcnto Of the auspicous
& occasion of Her Majesty's Jubilee; whereupOn the
Queen gave him medallion portrait of herself and
maue MN a hngho uranu Comhianuer Vi Ihe oear
Of India. To accert this distinction, which Indian
Chiefs are oddly said to covet, the proud Prince
had to kneel. Maharaah HollSar is heartily dis
liked at Court but is far too powerful for mis-.
chief In India to be treated coldly. All the other
Princes were present all offered something, and
all received at least medallions in return. The
most striking incident of all at the end, when
the Queen descended to the quadrangle and His
presented to Her Majesty fully caparisoned
charger
Private dinners and receptions in honor Of the
Queens guests were numerous all through the
